What we eat doesn’t just impact our health- it shapes the health of the planet. In this new episode of UBT Green Talks, we sit down with Dr. Carmen Jochem to explore the concept of the Planetary Health Diet.

Developed by the EAT-Lancet Commission, this diet represents a global strategy for nourishing all people while protecting the planet. Dr. Jochem shares insights into the diet’s scientific foundation and its relevance to public health. We also discuss the challenges of shifting to more sustainable eating patterns and what role policy, culture, and education play in making that transition possible. In addition, a fun visit to the supermarket showcases a real-life example of how individual choices can drive change!
